I did, thankyou. I slept 10 hours straight! 😆

This may be a simplistic answer to a complicated question but it's the way I see it at the moment: - From my side if the fence it looks like we have been traumatised pure and simple. On top of that we haven't been able to access healing for whatever reason. We may have been traumatised by abuse, but equally we may have been traumatised by neglect. I think neglect can sometimes be worse than abuse to be honest. Although people do react differently to trauma, I don't believe that anybody comes out unscathed and that humans are only 'normal' until they go through something traumatic. With the world the way it is, many more people are experiencing this and are suffering mentally and emotionally as a result. The 'normals' are fast becoming like us and it says to me that they are not invincible, they just haven't been up against it yet. We've been dealing with these issues a long time already 😢 Just my take on it 🤷‍♀️

Yoga last night. Woop! It definitely does what it says on the tin. I started off in this mood: 😠 And I ended up in this one: 😎 I wanted to smash things beforehand and afterwards I was just chillin 😉 Think I'll head out for walkies later on today. Weather is gloomy but it makes the walk more peaceful: less hoomans about 😁

A lot 😴

Yeah, I drink herbal tea sweetie 🍵with no caffeine.

I dont drink tea or coffee these days. I gave it up because I couldn't stop drinking it..... cup after cup all day. I didn't realise it but it made me irritable. It was very hard for me to stop but I got there in the end ☕ Food and drink have a big impact on my mood. I'm much more balanced if I eat more balanced meals and avoid the sugar as much as possible. Quitting the caffeine has made me calmer 😎😎😎

Did yoga yesterday as planned. Hurrah! Was gooooooood. Trying to muster the muster to get outta here for a walk after this cuppa. Planning to do an hour to an hour and a half. Hopefully my inner mind bitch will let me have a walk in peace 🤨

Yes Think (I'm) Hullicinating 🥵

OK family, I'm back. I haven't done a long walk or any yoga for a week now. Last week I felt the need to catch up on taming the jungle gym for insects (my garden) and some housework which had been neglected a bit with my couple weeks(?) of mind bending depression. I also felt the need to rest with those evil thoughts racing around and willing me to lay down in the road or curl up in a supermarket trolley 🛒 somewhere. Thankfully (?) I didn't lie down anywhere inappropriate and I seem to be OK again 💃💃💃 It's very hot here today. I'm in a scorchio little nook in the UK but I plan to get back to the mat after a shower and get a walk in later. I'm dedicating the day to exercise and getting back on track 👌The nasty thoughts aren't here now so I'll just have the usual milder torment to contend with which should hopefully be more manageable 🤞

Hot chocolate 🔥🍫🔥

Well yesterday, I woke up in Africa. No idea how I got there. The house seems the same as the day before, the streets seem like British streets and the face in the mirror is mine. But this ain't the UK. This is definitely Africa 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
